Criterion-Related Validity of the 20-M Shuttle Run Test for Estimating Cardiorespiratory Fitness: A Meta-Analysis

TL;DR: Overall the 20-m shuttle run test has a moderate-to-high mean criterion-related validity for estimating cardiorespiratory fitness, significantly higher for adults than for children, and when the performance score is combined with other variables, the criterion- related validity value increases considerably among children.

A new method for detecting anaerobic threshold by gas exchange

TL;DR: From incremental exercise tests on 10 subjects, the point of excess CO2 output (AT) predicted closely the lactate and HCO-3 thresholds and could be more reliably determined by the V-slope method.

Match performance of high-standard soccer players with special reference to development of fatigue

TL;DR: Top-class soccer players performed more high-intensity running during a game and were better at the Yo-Yo test than moderate professional players; fatigue occurred towards the end of matches as well as temporarily during the game, independently of competitive standard and of team position; defenders covered a shorter distance in high- intensity running than players in other playing positions.
